Sony Vaio PCG K115M keyboard problem (by 2 users)

posted by mozzaa on Jan 31, 2007


Hi

I recently purchased this item and have found that a couple of keyboard commands dont work correctly. Firstly the @ key does not produce the symbol but instead the 2 key when hit with control does prodece the @ symbol? Any ideas why this could be and secondly the £ sign does not appear at all when i hit control and 3 at the same time as it should.

I hope you can help

Alan

Hi, its easy to fix. you have your keyboard layout set to US Layout, ie americans have a couple of keys in reverse from ours.

All you have to do is this
Windows XP
Start, Control Panel, regional & language settings, change all US Settings, in there to UK British,
And it will fix your problems :-)

if its windows 98/ME ETC
start, control panel, Keyboard, and change the US Keyboard setting to UK British,
u usually have to set it twice, ie select uk, apply it, then do it again before it changes...

If you dont get it sorted will guide u though it just email me..

All the best
